The biggest mistake students make is to push that loan into the future. Be loan-wise and start working it now. Be working your future employment no later than when you have your Associates.
Karen Banes writes on Medium, "It's not who you know, it's who knows you." Build your personal brand by making connections and demonstrating competency.
There's the right job, then there's the right-now job. Be doing the right-now job while still in school to gain experience and make connections, even unpaid internships.
A degree in business management is too broad. Consider narrowing this down into specific paths that are supported by that broad degree.
Linda Babcock writes in her book Women Don't Ask: Negotiation and the Gender Divide that women may find it hard to negotiate. When women succeed, they lift up everyone around them through economic reinvestment, collaborative leadership, and prioritization of public policies.
Finally, 'free advice is worth the cost' (even mine). Seek professional advice regarding your student loan. Get financial help that can assist in building a plan.
Not slavery, but you gamble you will go straight into a lucrative job.
From first day in school:
1) Work and start paying off loan.
2) Network.
3) Internships.
4) Seek adjacent degree-supported positions.
5) Learn to negotiate.
@Notwokenow@ascensionfather This isn't just for college educated women. Social media is one hell of an instructor, and the 'chase the missing 20%' is a terrible message.
What's interesting is that we're at the woman as the leaver. Why isn't there as much discussion about the man leaving?
@TaraBull He's free to eat somewhere else. That's the beauty of choice. If you go to eat at In-n-Out you have to deal with the establishment's culture.
@Kristinartz You don't do anything.
Here's the secret: Our bodies age old, but our minds not so much; we still think we're young too.
And I thought you were supposed to support all women, not dictate their lives for them.
Keep your nose on your face, not in others' lives.
@TaraBull Impact vs. intent. Doesn't matter that the dog was 'being playful'. The outcome was an attack. And that dog is NOT being playful. The lunge for the back of the neck and continued attempts at take-down is the dog being harmful.
@itsrosesm Yes. The White House has been frequently modified by Presidents. Some did self-serving projects, like bowling lanes. In this case, the goal is to create a respectful, secure and appropriate venue to host other governments. Totally appropriate.
@reddit_lies I spent about 1 minute online during my free time, and $15 to get a certified Birth Certificate for my passport.
You act like this is a big fucking deal.
For most, It is not.
